This improves API consistency with uv_read and uv_write and may
improve efficiency for some uses. Vectored IO is emulated when the
requisite system calls are unavailable.
Otherwise `FSEventStreamCreate()` will coalesce events, even if they're
happening in the interval, bigger than supplied `latency`. In other
words, if this flag is not set events will happen in separate callback
only if there was a delay bigger than `latency` between two consecutive
events.
There're could be a situation, where one fsevents handle gets created
and another one is destroyed simultaneously. In such cases
`fsevent_need_reschedule` will be set to 1 twice and reset only once,
leaving handle destructor hanging in uv_sem_wait().
This commit changes the libuv API to return error codes directly rather
than storing them in a loop-global field.
A code snippet like this one:
if (uv_foo(loop) < 0) {
uv_err_t err = uv_last_error(loop);
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", uv_strerror(err));
}
Should be rewritten like this:
int err = uv_foo(loop);
if (err < 0)
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", uv_strerror(err));
The rationale for this change is that it should make creating bindings
for other languages a lot easier: dealing with struct return values is
painful with most FFIs and often downright buggy.
They're BSD-isms and obsolete ones at that. Replace with S_IRUSR and
S_IWUSR. Alias as _S_IREAD and _S_IWRITE on Windows because the '90s
never ended in Redmond, WA.
This changes the prototype of uv_run() from:
int uv_run(uv_loop_t* loop);
To:
int uv_run(uv_loop_t* loop, uv_run_mode mode);
Where `mode` is UV_RUN_DEFAULT, UV_RUN_ONCE or UV_RUN_NOWAIT.
Fixes#683.
Disable the fs_event_close_in_callback test on DragonFlyBSD, like we do on the
other BSDs.
The test doesn't work with kqueue-based file notifications, the event is
generated before the file is watched. Maybe we should remove it altogether.
